John Wesley’s advice for voting as recorded in his Journal on Thursday, October 6, 1774 —

I met those of our society who had votes in the ensuing election, and advised them,

1. To vote, without fee or reward, for the person they judged most worthy;

2. To speak no evil of the person they voted against; and

3. To take care their spirits were not sharpened against those that voted on the other side.
